I can't recommend Bill. In fact it's the complete opposite. If you are looking for a lawyer who will communicate and be honest with you, avoid Bill Duncan.
To cut to the chase, I got a speeding ticket near Yreka and decided to hire Bill, and he could not reduce or dismiss it. Now, I understand that it is not always guaranteed so this review is not about that. But he did make it seem like it was an easy win and that he should not have problems fighting it.
The problem is that Bill just refuses to communicate with you and will not respond to anything you say, even if you ask questions. During the four-five month period it took to take care of the ticket, he did not contact me ONCE. I reached out to him about three times with questions and he didn't respond to ANY of them. Please see attached pictures for proof.
The only time he reached out was when he went to court and failed. He told me he succeeded to fight it "30%. " Oh. I didn't realize the courts gave lawyers a grade to how much they succeeded.. NOT. And after that, I replied and asked him a question. Guess what. He didn't reply.
One reviewer stated that Bill "doesn't hold your hand" with the issue. I understand that lawyers will not be buddy buddy with you and talk to you everyday. But they work with clients and it is UNACCEPTABLE to not establish any sort of relationship and communication, especially when most clients are uneasy about what will happen to them after a ticket.
So terrible communication, bad result. I understand there aren't too many lawyers in the Yreka area, but I'm sure any other person would be better. If you are reading this because you need a lawyer, pass on and find someone else- it'll save you from trouble later.
Thank you again.
Bill's an excellent trial court attorney, must have been on debate team, very distinguished gentleman with many years of experience. My court case has been done pro bono for last 7 yrs. Thanks for all your many hours spent setting up for Trial, I'll give you a 10+.
We (WON) Go Bill
